History
Established in 2005.
In 1997, as Girl Scout Troop #61 was working on the «My Community» badge, one of the scouts, Kristalynn Kempton, asked her mother, «Why doesn’t our community have a library?» That was the start of what was to become the Gold Coast Public Library District.
The Library opened for business on August 1, 2005 at 50 Railroad Avenue in Glen Head, in the remodeled building formerly known as ‘Norway Hall.’ Genellen McGrath was appointed as the first Library Director on April 5, 2006.
